So While Apple has kicked out Google Maps from their upcoming iOS6,
it still seems that Apple will have to have Google applications on their
iDevices. As of now, the Google Chrome browser is available for iOS and
probably a concurring product to Apple’s own Safari browser.

Tram with bent pantograph (again!)

The new trams of Bernmobil seem to be dogged by bad luck. Again the
pantograph of one tram seems to have ensnarled itself in the powerline
and thus has been bent down. The force acting on the pantograph must
have been enormous. The pictures will proove this very spectacularly!

Google Chrome 20 released!

Chrome 20 has just been released but for those, expecting a big new release of
Google’s browser will be disappointed… probably. Because the usual numbering
of small releases (and I consider 23 bugfixes as such) is a minor number upgrade.
Such as Firefox being at 13.0.1 right now. But there’s good stuff, also inside.

Just an exception – or the beginning?

Can a complete city of the size of Zurich or Nuremberg get into bankruptcy?
No? Then this city in California, namely Stockton is teaches you otherwise!
Stockton is in debt with hundreds of millions of dollars. What sounds not much
is a real shock for the residents. The city is also suffering of high crime now!

Diablo III: Things to hate about it!

Patch 1.0.3 has been just released offering some easing but also some
annoyances. While playing the game on Act II Inferno, I again had to face
some annoying things. Among these are classical: champion groups having
two or more magic attibutes and dealing massive amounts of damage.

Test: Microsoft Touch Mouse

Another hardware test. Believe it or not but I recently have acquired a

When it comes to a new iOS version, there’s also a new iDevice on the roll.

the AppleTV? No one knows for sure but what’s great for those waiting for
the newest iGadgets, can also be great news for those with actual iDevices.

Almost “free” speech…

Unbelievable but true. But it seems as if free speech in the USA gets limited
more and more. As if the USA wouldn’t have enough laws, there’s always
room for one more. This time it’s Middleborough, Massachusetts. A word
as common as other profanities you hear in public for various reasons.

Master of keys: The G600 from Logitech

It seems as if Logitech still has the power to draw attention to it’s products.
The G600 seems to fill the gap between a gamer mouse and the possibility
to control a MMORPG without the use of a keyboard at all. But what makes
the G600 so special against other mice from other manufacturers.

Circumhorizontal arc over Zurich

A natural phenomenon like this is very rare to see. But when it happens, it

If you ever thought, Tornadoes are only for the American continent then guess
again. Today, Venice has been struck by a tornado which could be of F4 category
if you compare the size of it to common tornadoes. Detailed information is not
available yet. Currently it seems as if there are no killed people, fortunately.

WWDC 2012: No iPhone5 or AppleTV

Apple’s newest WWDC 2012 in San Francisco was most-expected so far.
People have expected a sneak peek on Apple’s newest gadgets. I speak of the
iPhone 5 and AppleTV. But none of the two gadgets have been mentionned.
And with this, it’s most unlikely that you will get these this year’s christmas!

PR gone wrong…

This year’s NDC (Norwegian Developer’s Conference) from Microsoft seems
to have been a bit weird and shameful for Microsoft. During a very odd dance
show where light-suited women have danced during a modifies Scooter song,
the words “Micro” and “Soft” have flashed on the teleprompters.

Groupon, Facebook, LinkedIn. They all have one thing in common. Their

And they all suffer from the same disease. The loss of stock value. While FB

Nothing is faster than light – honestly!

What thrilled the whole world last year seems to have been finally put back to
normal again. Have measurements shown that neutrinos seemed to have been
a tad faster than light, more recent measurements at CERN have shown that also
neutrinos stick to Einstein’s Relativity theory (E=mc²). So light is still the fastest!

Tactile touchscreen for the visual impaired?

What looks promising at first seems too good to be true. However the idea or
concept to bring touchscreen-operated devices to the visual impaired may be
weird too? Why would someone use a touchscreen-device if he/she can’t see
what is on it. Okay, the idea is cool but the practical usage is not yet proven.

An oven connected to the WWW

If you ever thought, kitchen devices, such as fridges are the only thing that are
connected to the internet, well, think again because AGA has given an oven the
functionality to be operated from the web. Although I see some sort of risk in
this (despite virae that may attack the OS interface of it), it may be a cool gadget.
